Our family company first got started in 1906. It's evolution has taken place over four generations and continues today.

I have been part of the business for more than 24 years now, starting as a 14-year old working with my dad during my summer vacations. My father was an incredible man, my best friend, and I have modeled him all my life. He was skilled in the many diverse crafts required of steeple and building restoration. He used old-time skills and knowledge taken from many walks of life to become proficient in his trade. In fact, during the early years of my father operating the business he worked on water towers as well as churches, had a flagpole company and even built wooden boats as a hobby. In the early 1970's he built a 64-foot double masted schooner in Thailand. From there he set our on what would end up being a 3 1/2 year journey sailing his family (myself 7yrs. old at the outset) around the world. It was upon our return that the family business ultimately narrowed down its focus of work to be on churches and building restoration.

For the better part of 20 years I worked alongside my father. He passed along his skills, his knowledge, and his manner. In time I took over the operation of the business and my father assisted me in between the building of several more large wooden boats and the adventures that went along with them. I have been running the company for about 10 years.

My father passed away in 1999, but his skills and knowledge will live on much longer through me and the company he shaped. Myself, I have made my home in a small town in norther New Hampshire where I enjoy the company of family and friends and the outdoors.
